Imagine if there was a billion in aid to #Ukraine to convince more Russian soldiers to desert. #NonViolent tactics like this are effective, and are much cheaper and vastly less destructive than the many 10s of billions in military aid that is flowing there.

@sergii yes, that is one case. If you read the whole article, you'll also see that some soldiers are calling the hotline from Russia before they've even made it to Ukraine.
@eighthave article literally says that russians surrender after being crushed and sitting somewhere in the mud. Wonder 🤔 how did that happen with a help of 10s of billions or was it a hotline?
